How our green ammonia system works

Modular, Containerized, Autonomous

Talus Renewables, an energy technology company, has pioneered the first commercial, modular, zero-carbon green ammonia system that makes the production and distribution of a critical raw material cheaper, cleaner, and more reliable.

Talus locally produces lower-cost, carbon-free ammonia at or near the point of use, creating value for agriculture, mining, and maritime shipping, with applications in renewable energy storage and power generation.
Why green ammonia?

Green ammonia is a global de-carbonizer

Ammonia is a critical raw material used in fertilizers and other industrial applications. Grey ammonia contributes 2% of global carbon emissions and depends on an unreliable and costly supply chain. Talus supports a cheaper, cleaner alternative: Green Ammonia.

Why Talus?

Why We Win the Clean Ammonia Race

Remove the middleman from the process with our green ammonia production capabilities. Our on-site green ammonia systems remove the costly, and unreliable supply chain from the equation. We improve access to a critical raw material by:
Providing a clean ammonia alternative for agricultural or industrial use
Supporting sustainable farming
Tackling global food insecurity issues

Uses
Green Ammonia Solutions
Talus Renewables offers new pathways to chemicals, fertilizers, and fuels with its green ammonia production technology. Our distributed green ammonia systems profitably serve existing markets today while building a platform for emerging applications tomorrow.
Agriculture
Avoid supply chain uncertainty and lower the cost of nitrogen fertilizers by 50% with our carbon-free solution. Farmers in developing countries can tackle food insecurity by practicing sustainable farming with our on-site technology. Developed countries can boost profits and production without negatively impacting the environment.
Agriculture
Industrial
Industrial applications for anhydrous ammonia include industrial refrigeration, mining, and water treatment. Our green ammonia technology replaces the grey ammonia systems currently in place to reduce carbon emissions.
Industrial
Renewable fuels
Our green ammonia technology extends beyond agricultural and industrial uses to serve as a carbon-free renewable fuel source. Its capabilities include renewable energy storage and power generation.
More about our solution
Local Production = Lower Cost
Our technology improves access to low-cost, carbon-free fertilizers, fuel, and energy storage. Local production lowers cost while boosting reliability and sustainability.
Core team
Domain expertise across green ammonia, manufacturing, and project development
